HITMXE®
The Fourth Way of Futurism.
Evidence shows that global business transformation is in a brittle state. Drawing on pioneers, artists, athletes, philosophers and psychologists who had the courage to shape better worlds, Humans In The Machine reflects an idea gathering momentum: businesses must become more human to realise their future potential.
Humans In The Machine is designed to grow with people - in Startups, SMEs, MNCs and institutions. In a complexified world, we help people find their courage and make change last.
We work with people between worlds — founders, leaders, creators and teams navigating the space between what was and what must come next. We find causes, face consequences, think divergently and bring technology back into harmony with humanity.
Embracing futurism with enthusiasm.
HITMXE® is on a mission to become the rehumanising platform for a healthier marketplace.
Helping 1 million people achieve lasting change.
Because the world needs more courage and anyone can be more more courageous.
The status quo.
“We live in a machine that is designed to get us to neglect what is important about life.”
Professor Tim Kasser
The Attention Economy is thriving at our expense.
Compulsive attention‑seeking has been normalised and commoditised. The hit of short‑term validation narrows long‑term choice—turning us into centred‑selves, a culture where everyone is the protagonist and no one connects. It’s as true for the expectant social media scroller as it is for the expectant financial analyst or the expectant CEO.
An economy that incentivises posture and performance becomes parody—a trap of our own making. Exiting it requires the courage to become self‑centred in the older sense: grounded in one’s centre, oriented toward others, offering stance and substance instead of spectacle.
The HITMXE® 4R method creates lasting change by embodying enthusiasm.
